select a clutch stage and it'll pair your selection up with a flywheel.

guessing around 350 whp?

If I'm gonna squeeze out any more hp from my car I'm gonna add the clutch/flywheel to it first.

Anyways..free bump to you. Wouldn't mind knowing myself.

i miss the clutch chatter i had when i switched form the dual mass to a lightweight in my tib...now im drivin the z bone stock.

that chatter means quick revs and a more spirited feeling engine, id trade the quiet slow revs for the loud idle and quick revs any day of the week

With 440whp / 380wtq on tap, one of our customers went about 6 months on a stock HR clutch/flywheel without any slip. Although I wouldn't recommend it - the car drives sooooo much better now with a JWT clutch and lightweight flywheel.

But it also depends on how hard you drive it! Lots of people burn up their stock clutches on semi-stock Z/Gs immediately!

some one in germany is offering this clutchmaster clutch:
http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...:X:RTQ:DE:1123

translated:
-rated for 700 hp
-only 1000km driven, very good condition.

I asked him, if it will fit my 07 hr 350z. he just said: yes, it will, why not?

so my question is: I thought 03-06 clutches are different to 07+ 350z clutches. will this fit my 07 hr Z, or is this guy a noob?

Thanks,
Alex.

as mentioned, the clutch for an HR is completely different from the clutch for the DE..so is the flywheel.

I've always heard you install a new pressure plate and clutch; never that you're supposed to install a new flywheel EVERY time you install the other two parts...Weird.
